Any one who have installed NFS Carbon on their PC please tell me the exact amount of Hard Disk Space it took to install NFSC. Also tell me how it will play with 512MB RAM.

512 is enough to run the game in 640*480 mode with no/less lag.

NOTE: 1. NFS Carbon does NOT run on Intel onboard gfx. (GMA900, GMA 3000).
2. it runs on Nvidia's & ATi's onboard gfx. :wink:

Firstly- I have 512 MB of RAM and a Geforce 5200 with 256 MB of mem and I run the game on 1024x768 with no lags.

Secondy for the space on HDD part, take a look at the shot below.

I missed the motion blur too. And only lags that I face are during the customizations of the car models where one can change the vinyls on the car. But otherwise its fine. The main things are the races 4 me and if they run fine than I say no lags! Thanks 4 ur comments.
